Chapter 8: A Lonely Day Never Dies, An Empire Never Dies
In the study, Ying Zheng looked at the historical records in his hand, and a question once again came to his mind - why did the Qin Dynasty die?
This issue has been discussed in all dynasties, and the people of the Han Dynasty thought that it was a problem of the system, and the Qin Dynasty just couldn't do it, and it didn't work at the root, and it couldn't work anywhere!
Although the Han Dynasty inherited the Qin system, although the system of the Han Dynasty was very similar to the Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty officially recognized it as such.
The dynasties and generations after the Han Dynasty had similar views to the Han Dynasty.
Violent Qin can't die well!
Fix the body and ask!
In modern time and space, Ying Zheng also consulted the opinions of many experts and scholars, and finally he also consulted the opinions of the majority of sand sculpture netizens.
Some people think that Hu Hai was a big fool, so the Qin Dynasty II died. If it is replaced by Fusu, no matter how bad the Qin Dynasty is, it will be able to occupy Guanzhong and restore its status as one of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States. As soon as Hangu Pass passes, no number of people can get in. If you're lucky, you can pass on Daqin smoothly.
Some people thought that the Qin law was too strict, and the people of the Six Kingdoms couldn't stand it, so the Qin Dynasty died.
Others believe that this is a backlash to abolishing the feudal system and implementing centralized power. It was a three-hundred-year dynasty that carried it, and then the Qin Dynasty did not resist.
Of course, there are some people with unique views who believe that this is the result of the self-collapse of the military merit system due to the loss of its enemies. The old system collapsed, and the new system died before it was established.
Ying Zheng has carefully analyzed these reasons. When analyzing, he also carefully compared the various data of Daqin collected by Shaofu, as well as the details of the entire world today.
In addition, he also carefully read all the historical books of the Later Han Dynasty, the Two Jin Dynasties, the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, and even the Republic of China and modern times.
Then he had the answer in his heart: there was some truth in all of these views, but they were not complete, and they were all secondary reasons. The main reason is that I died, and I died too soon.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng took a pencil and wrote eight big characters on the white paper, or is the regular script very upright - the widow does not die, who dares to oppose Qin?
After thinking about it, Ying Zheng wrote down two names - Chen Sheng and Wu Guang.
If the widows don't die, will they dare to rebel?
Don't dare, at most it's just a flight. What's more, in terms of conscription, Qin Fa has never said that they will be beheaded within time, they are just conscription and not the army.
After swiping it, the names of the two were crossed out by Yingzheng. Immediately afterwards, another name was written below - Xiang Yu.
If Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's uprising can be regarded as the precursor of the king, then Xiang Yu is the guy who directly brought the Qin Dynasty to its demise, and he annihilated the main force of Great Qin.
If he lives alone, does he dare to rebel?
He estimated that he really dared, but his uncle Xiang Liang did not die, where is his turn to be the master of the house.
Do the remnants of the Six Nations dare?
Zhang Liang, who was the most daring, was engaged in assassination, and Bo Lang struck a blow. As for the rebellion, those who have the courage have no strength, and those who have the strength have no courage.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng wrote the last name on the white paper, and this time it was very hard - Liu Bang.
It was this guy who overthrew Great Qin and established a new dynasty. And his descendants are still dying in Qin. The same is true of the civil and military officials of the Han Dynasty, especially Sima Qian, who is a big black man.
A lonely day does not die, and the empire does not die a day.
Knock knock
Hearing the knock on the door, Ying Zheng returned to reality from his thoughts, and when he looked at the door, his right hand trembled slightly, and the white paper in front of him automatically turned into powder.
"It turned out to be sir, please come in and give me a seat. β
After Wei Yuzi sat down, Ying Zheng came to the opposite side of him. They sat opposite each other, both on their mats. In front of him was a small table with white paper, pencils, and some related materials.
The Great Qin at this moment is completely different from the later generations. It's not just the monarch who selects talents, the real top talents, but also the right to choose the monarch.
Therefore, when Liu Bang worships Han Xin as a general, he needs to build a special platform to worship the generals to show his sincerity.
And Wei Yizi is the top strategic talent in this era, and he is more like a Guigu disciple than the two Guigu double swords who are not worthy of the name and only know how to chop and chop.
"Sir's grandfather is Wei Guowei, and Mr.'s father is also Wei Guowei, if nothing else, Mr. himself will still be Wei Guowei. But Mr. gave up his identity as the lieutenant of Wei and came to Daqin after being invited by Lone, and Lone was very pleased. β
In order to please me, you sent eight sunflower guards and eighty evil wards, with such great sincerity, can I not come?
"Haha, it's just that I'm optimistic about Daqin. My grandfather was a Wei lieutenant for three generations, in charge of the Wei military, and he knew the Seven Kingdoms well. If there is any country that can dominate the world, it can only be the Qin State. β
"The world is set to be one, this is the consensus of people with lofty ideals. And now, I'm more optimistic about the king. Wei Yanzi stroked his beard and said lightly.
It's a pity that Zhang Liang, who has been in the Han Dynasty for five generations, does not have such a good consciousness as Wei Yuzi, and in the face of Ying Zheng's invitation, he chose to refuse.
"What can you teach me, sir?"
"With the strength of the Qin State, the princes are like the kings of the counties, what I am worried about is that the princes will join forces, and they will unite to surprise them, which is the reason why Zhibo, Fucha, and Min Wang perished. β
"I hope that the king will not cherish his possessions, and use them to bribe the powerful ministers of various countries in order to disturb their schemes, so that he will lose only 300,000 gold, and the princes will be wiped out. β
"Just do that, and the rest just do your best to make no mistakes. With the national strength of Great Qin, if you don't make a mistake and don't give the princes a chance to join forces, the world will be decided. β
"As for the more specific strategy of governing the country and the more detailed method of governing the army, I will not discuss it in detail with the king, these are what the generals, the Taishou, and the county commanders should know. β
"What the king has to do is to grasp the overall situation, stand on a high place, stand at the forefront of Daqin, guide the direction, and set goals. The rest will be handed over to me, the prime minister, to Meng Fu, the secretary, and to Li Si, the young minister. β
At this moment, Wei Yizi was very determined, and at the same time he was watching Yingzheng, waiting for his response.
"Good, so do the widows. Ying Zheng said with a smile.
In the history books recorded by later generations, the number of recitals he reads every day is as many as several carts of bamboo slips, coupled with poor health, he is directly tired and sick, and later he is tired and dies.
This kind of future, Ying Zheng doesn't want to experience it again.
"Sir, in order to unify the six countries, General Gu worships Mr. as the prime minister, and the important task of reforming Daqin is handed over to Mr., and here are some of Lone's requirements for you. β
"If these requirements can't be met, they can be put forward and we will discuss them. If you can do it, please sir. β
"First of all, on the military side, you have to train every day. Three meals a day, a full meal, at least one meat dish every two days, and soup every day. On the part of the officers......"
"Secondly, the people must eat enough, and near Xianyang, they must do three meals a day, at least one meal of meat dishes every ten years......"
"In addition, there is a budget system, the first five-year plan, road construction, population encouragement, fertility encouragement, and more fertility incentives. If you can't support it, you can send it to the imperial court, and the imperial court will help raise it, and there are many people......"
